  3. I had what is called the “safe sleeve “ only one place is pantened to do it tht is Bloosum Barriactics in Henderson Nevada ( hence the spelling errors ) it was pretty good he does remove the stomach but leaves many of the vessels in place making it safer and faster to heal highly recommend I paid 9,995 dollars and hotel was furnished suite along with black car and limo service provided the whole time
  4. Congratulations everyone “we started our journey “?

  12. But look at the bright side ,”we all going to be hawt “ I had my surgery Friday ,and sat was rough ,but today is a new day and I’m going to get out and walk a bit ,hopefully,we leave Las Vegas Tuesday ans hope to be in my home town by Tuesday night,the doc repaired a hital hernia and tht has been my biggest thing so far aside from only siping water instead of chugging it I’m not hungry yet but I stay so dang thirsty ,I’m forty as well ,ans did this for my heart and I hope to come off my bp meds ,I’m glad it’s challenging me to make better food choices as I lived off McDonald’s during the day and pizza rolls at night smfh I thk when we get down to our ideal weight we’ll be able to add things in like wings ,now the pizza I don’t know but they is some awesom Parmesan crust recipes out there ,and I hope I don’t develop blood clots I had a friend who had his gall bladder taken out then died a week later only wished I could had got to him sooner losing the weight could had saved his life ,maybe try finding friends at the gym or something people with the same goals as you and take it one day at time ,32 pounds is great keep at it ,when u get there u will be able to say “wow I did it “?
  13. 15 pounds in a month is awesome ?

  15. It’s will not let me post my photos and I don’t know why
  16. Well Made it to Vegas went through y’all the test for preop ,surgery tomorrow it’s real now Dr Tom Ulmbach will be performing my surgery called the “safe sleeve “he is the only one who does the safe procedure ,blossom Bariatrics ,it’s is being performed as outpatient and tht makes me nervous ? but I’m hearing good reviews from the limos drivers ,I’m on preop diet protein and unlimited veggies two shakes a day ,NPO by 8 pm tonight limo pick up at 10:15 said I will be at the warm springs surgical center for 5-6 hours then back to my hotel then in on sat for IV therapy to prevent dehydration and they are going to check for leaks ,prayers for me and I will pray for you all good luck my SW 228 was what I weighed yesterday can’t wait to see where I am at 8months from now ?
  17. Anyone had this done as our patient my plane leaves tommorw n I’m getting nervous I fly to Vegas to have it done my BMI is 42.3
  18. I’m struggling with preop diet I’m so hungry ?
  19. Who all has used Bloosum Bariactrics in Las Vegas ?
  20. Try blossom Bariacteics in Las Vegas instead of Mexico they are doing mine for under 9 k
  21. Anyone used “Bloosum Bariacteic” ?
  22. March 17-27 I will be at bloosum Bariacteics In Las Vegas , my surgery will be the 21 or something they do a five day fast track with surgery the third day there we r arriving early to see Las Vegas but it almost half the price to have it there which worked out great since I turned into a self pay
  23. Well as you all know I had insurance issues ,now I just paid for my surgery in full ,to have the sleeve done in Las Vegas at Bloosum Bariactrics ,have any of you ever used them ?
  24. Well , I went through six months of weigh in nutrition classes ,EDGs ,cardiac clearances,psych evaluations ,blood work ,and now they cancelled the insurance two weeks ,before I was due to have the surgery . So I won’t be getting to get sleeved now ,I thk it’s all a scam here in Ky they rack up tht Insurance then boom right before surgery date they “cancel “ your insurance .
  25. Tht is so sad ,was his in a inoperable place ,as well ,they told me “losing the excess weight is what would help”but I appreciate the prayers ,I was really scared at first ,but I have since got over tht fear, I thk ,god just comes and collects some of us early, ,I never did find out what caused mine ,but I contribute it the body weight ,when I met with my nutritionist I asked “where she been all my life lol ,cause tht is something we don’t understand when we are young and invincible tht hey the Big Mac is really killing us ,I wish I would had eaten better younger ,and earlier but hey it’s never too late right ,my heart bleeds for you ,but know tht life here is short and temporary ,and it goes bye so fast ,your son will be waiting for you at the gates ,where the streets are paved with gold and there is so pain ,tears ,or sadness , I wouldn’t know what it would be like to bury a child as I can’t imagine ,but he sure must been special ,cause I believe ,god takes the special ones early ,as Jesus was in his thirties as well .
